#1. Aaron Rodgers

We have all been witnesses to Aaron Rodgers playing with a chip on his shoulder. That chip will be about the size of Peyton Manning’s forehead next season.

Rodgers has to be growing tired of the playoff record as well as the overtime records.

Particularly the fact the Packers have been bounced in back-to-back seasons in an overtime that failed to see Rodgers touch the ball. The 2015 season was one of the most frustrating seasons this quarterback has ever endured outside of being injured.

3,827 yards with 31 touchdowns and 8 interceptions is a career year for many quarterbacks. The 92.7 rating turned in by Rodgers is his worst since 2008. It was also the first time it dipped below 100 since 2008.

Rodgers will be on a mission next season. As mentioned in #2, this will potentially be the best group of receivers he has enjoyed with the Packers.

If health is on the side of Aaron Rodgers and his receivers, next season could be a record breaking season. Rodgers will once again be among the MVP talk.

A championship belt hoisted on the golden right arm could very well be seen again next season.
